Default First time to the track this year

Went to a local track, they run street legal drags with no prep. Mods in sig.

E/T- 8.125
MPH- 86.3
R/T- .053
60ft- 1.912
330ft- 5.278

Overall the car ran consistant. These time were on BFG 255/16 d/r's at 15psi. I ran 5 passes all 8.12-8.18.

I think my rear is getting tired, it starts doing a posi burnout then kicks one leg when I get into it, Do I need a new center section?

Just wondering if you guys think this is where I should be? The car is almost 100% stock suspension other then the PHB and weighs 3600lbs with me in it.

Not bad for a heavy car and no track prep. I'd say do some work on the suspension and improve that 60' either way it looks like you've got a mid 12 second ride! Pretty good for a stock headed hotcam car!

My goal was high sevens in the 1/8th with this setup. Hopefully I can make it on better tires and track prep. I Have a set of LE2 heads that are suppose to come this week. I would like to do some weight reduction but not sure what I want to get rid of yet.

The plans for suspension this year and SFC's, Box my stock LCAs, and a tunnell mounted torque arm.
